BRUCE BARTLETT'S HISTORY

Although Bruce Barlett resided in Napa, he's been known to frequent Llanview on and off since 2005. Being the attorney and friend of Nash Brennan, Bruce spied into Tess's past for Nash, uncovering that she was indeed Jessica Buchanan. Besides getting Nash out of some pretty sticky financial trouble on more than a few occasions, Bruce is notoriously known for his part in Adriana Cramer's stalking and abduction. Hired by Dorian Lord to pretend to be a stalker in order to break up Adriana and Rex Balsom, Bruce became greedy and kidnapped Adriana as a way to blackmail Dorian out of millions. However, his plan ultimately led to his demise and Bruce was shot while in a struggle with Rex, which ended his life for forever.
